[arin-ppml] ARIN Multiple Discrete Networks Policy

[Kevin Blumberg]

John,

Are those approvals for members that had existing MDN space and required additional space or requests to move under the MDN policy?

As for the rejections I was more interested in the total number of people rejected on initial request to be under the MDN policy that did not
complete later on. 

Thanks,

Kevin Blumberg
